30 Acts of Kindness

Monday, June 30, 2014

Tiny, gracious gestures really can turn your own (or someone else’s) day
around. After having an absolutely terrible week someone sent me a text message
that completely turned my day around. It made me think of the little things
that we can do to leave this place better than we found it. Here are 30 simple
acts of kindness that can change someone’s day.
